I'm so curious to see this that I am even willing to pitch in for the board to have access to it.
I want to know why our playaction just doesn't produce big plays. This isn't even about Dak as I was making this same point back in 2014 when Romo was the QB.
Sometimes we'll hit on a deep crossing route that goes for 18-22 yards, but we have not been anywhere near as successful as we should be in hitting a target over the top deep down the field.
I know our WRs aren't the greatest at getting separation, but playaction is about more than that. It's play design and fooling the defense into getting sucked in. Just look at the Gary Kubiak/Kyle Shanahan playaction. That shit works like a charm all the time. The Texans and then the Falcons would always have a guy running all alone down the field despite the fact that this play was used so often by those respective teams. So we know it can't just be about the personnel on the field.
Being as we have been one of the best running teams in football for 4 years straight, don't you guys find it odd that we don't hit very many big plays at all out of the playaction?
So my question is, what's the biggest reason for that? Is it play design? It is the WRs? Is it the QB not pulling the trigger when he should? TV replays don't tell you the story, so we would have a much better idea if we could see the All-22 film.
I'm so eager to find out that I am willing to chip in for the board to get access.
Anyone else?
